HOW IS BASS FISHING AT LAKE OVIACHIC:

The heavy restocking of the lake in the past
years and several record spawns the past few
years will ensure that we will have exceptional large mouth bass
fishing here at Lake Oviachic.

Each year the average
size of bass has increased, with bass in the 6 to 8
pound range very common. This year we
anticipate numerous catches in the 8 to 10 pound range.
While the size of our largest bass are not as large as
those found at Lake Baccarac and a few of the other
lakes, you will find that the number of fish which you
will catch here at Obregon will far exceed the average
catches at the other bass lakes in Mexico. It is not
uncommon for a single boat with two fishermen to catch
in excess of 50 bass daily. Lake Oviachic is about 25
miles long and is one of the largest lakes in Mexico.
With virtually hundreds of coves providing cover for
bass, you will find that fishing here is very uncrowded.
